A recent petition by Migori Senator Eddy Oketch to remove Secretary General Edwin Sifuna from the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) due to alleged gross misconduct was withdrawn, highlighting the party's process for ousting a Secretary General.

• A Secretary General can be removed via a petition to the party national chairperson, detailing grounds like gross misconduct or breach of the party constitution, followed by a fair hearing by the disciplinary committee.
• The National Executive Council (NEC) must ratify the removal recommendation with a simple majority vote.
• The Office of the Registrar of Political Parties (ORPP) must be notified within 14 days of such a change using Form PP7.
• Former Sports Cabinet Secretary Ababu Namwamba was removed as ODM Secretary General in 2016, leading to Edwin Sifuna's eventual appointment in February 2018.
